A cartoon-like production is set to be performed at Knole Academy next month.

Thanks to Applause Rural Touring a performance of Storm in a Teacup will be staged at the Oaks Theatre.

Inspired by Chekov's Three Sisters, this darkly comic piece is a window into the quirky and tender world of three sisters as they fight the system to keep their independence.

In the old room where they used to reside, words have lost their place and physical comedy, walking sticks and false teeth come to life.

There is no dialogue in the production as the story is shared through choreographed pieces to music.

Applause Rural Touring is a touring scheme for Kent and Sussex based in Tunbridge Wells.

The scheme has been running for over 10 years and works with local communities to provide professional, affordable, challenging and inspiring performances.

Applause works with regional and national level performing companies and artists to provide the productions for small-scale venues.

The performance will take place on Saturday, May 9 at 7pm.
